new camera!!

I bought a new point and shoot yesterday. Couldn't resist. I wanted a smaller one and this one is it! It is about the size of my cell phone. It is 10 megapixels and has a 5 times zoom. I love it so far. It is cool! Nothing will replace my D200 but it is a portrait camera. It is VERY large and heavy. I don't always like to drag it around with 4 children.

I am going to give Lane my old Coolpix. I want her to start learning so it will be perfect for her. I am going to allow her to take it to school during the last week to take photos of her friends. Then she can start scrapping her own photos too!

yep!

it even has a smile sensor. it won't take a shot until everyone is smiling. how odd is that?
